Zombies are the new vampire.

Good description is a learned skill, one of the prime reasons why you cannot succeed unless you read a lot and write a lot. It’s not just a question of how-to, you see it’s also a question of how much to. Reading will help you answer how much, and only reams of writing will help you with the how. You can learn only by doing.

I think of fear as a survival function, and in the stories that I write, the only thing that I've tried to do is provide people with nightmares which are really safe places to put those fears for a while because you can say afterwards that uh, that, that well it was all just make-believe anyway, so I just took my emotions for a walk.

He could feel the pores of his body open like a million mouths and slurp the water in like a sponge.

I'm seen as somebody who writes for adults because I'm an older man myself. Some of them find me, and a lot of them don't.

We'll just have to get along. That's what people do, you know? They just get along. And try to help each other.

Fantasy has a better chance of lasting than a lot of other things. The Hobbit and the Narnia books, they seem to get handed down father to son, mother to daughter. Because they're set in a fantasy world, they can remain relevant.

A good reputation is something that must be earned, yet can never be bought.
